Hello,

mapping hotplug
        script grep
        map wlan0

# The primary network interface
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.20.20
netmask 255.255.255.0
nameserver 192.168.20.1
gateway 192.168.20.1
wireless-essid Access Point		
wireless-key blahblahblah

I have a static ip on a local network and I have read that the dhcp
client resets the resolv.conf package. I tried commenting out everything
on /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf with no luck. Do I remove client or
deactivate client, if so how?

I also read that if you install the package resolvconf and added
nameserver to /etc/networking/interfaces that would stop dhcp from
cleaning our nameserver on resolv.conf but no luck. So I removed per
Paco and no luck. Is resolvconf important?
